relative right

Read a random definition: derivative defense

A quick definition of relative right:

A relative right is something that a person is allowed to do or have, but only in certain situations. It's not an absolute right that they can always have no matter what. For example, a child might have the relative right to play video games, but only after they finish their homework. It's like having a special permission that can be taken away if the conditions aren't met.

A more thorough explanation:

A relative right is a type of right that is dependent on a specific relationship or circumstance. It is a right that is not absolute and can be limited or modified by other factors.

For example, a tenant has a relative right to use the property they are renting, but this right is limited by the terms of their lease agreement. Similarly, a shareholder has a relative right to vote on company matters, but this right is limited by the number of shares they own.

Another example of a relative right is the right to privacy. While individuals have a right to privacy, this right can be limited in certain circumstances, such as in the interest of national security or public safety.

Overall, a relative right is a right that is not absolute and can be modified or limited by other factors or circumstances.
